As the car was pretty much packed there was not too much to do before we left apart from turn off all electrical stuff we will not need and include turning off the hot water system. So an easy morning and then we left home at about 1530 for this short journey down to Portsmouth. The weather up till that time had been really nice but as soon as we got to Portsmouth the heavens opened and it was really unpleasant. We checked and waited for our son and daughter and families to arrive before we all boarded the Brittany Ferries Bretagne to St Malo. It was about 8.30 by the time we all met and the children were getting tired but not giving up, and then around 2145 we headed of the bedroom to sleep.
We have used Brittny ferries quite a few times but one a different route and vessel but this one was very noisy with creeks and rattles and Jenifer and the adults had a rough night although the kids seem to sleep quite well as they were nearly asleep when the they adjourned to their rooms for a restless night.
So tomorrow will be an interesting day as we leave St Malo for Carnac with the weather forecast looking pretty rubbish.
